Annual Profit Sharing


Our profit-sharing program is an investment in you and sets us apart in the industry.

Profit sharing is an important way Gordon Food Service shares the success of the business with you. Since 1960, the plan has reflected our company’s values and the commitment of the Gordon family to employees. The amount awarded each year is determined by the Board of Directors and is dependent on business results. Each year’s profit sharing allocation is announced at the Annual Celebrations held during November or December at every location. Profit Sharing is distributed at the end of December.
